I don't understand the apple framework/glib event handling structure
and I doubt this is terribly informative, but for the sake of
completeness the output of 'thread list' is pasted below:

(lldb) thread list

Process 23166 stopped

* thread #1: tid = 0x4d18b, 0x00007fff8a861166
libsystem_kernel.dylib`__psynch_mutexwait + 10, queue =
'com.apple.main-thread', stop reason = signal SIGSTOP

  thread #2: tid = 0x4d18c, 0x00007fff8a8613fa
libsystem_kernel.dylib`__select + 10, name = 'gmain'

(lldb)
